War Bride Presentations






 
Thousands of war brides came to Canada after the First World War but we rarely hear about these pioneering war brides. Travel back-in-time with Annette Fulford to explore the history of the First World War Brides through newspaper articles, documents and photographs of the era.

This presentation ranges from 20 minutes to 1 hour via zoom or in person from the Vancouver area. It is a mix of historical and genealogical information depending on the audience.

In person presentation includes two large presentation boards with additional historical information about the war brides.
